35. *Gender * is a Huge Policy Issue

FULL STOP.

Only those who have not experienced the effects of racial, sexual and gender discrimination can believe that broad brushed economic policy alone even begins to address those abuses.

So-called progressives who deny that reality and constantly use sexist dog whistles (*whore*) to wind up their privileged fans will never get my support. Our country and our candidates need to have a discussion and platform on women's issues that go beyond economic and reproductive talking points and into the nitty gritty of daily discrimination in every sphere.
